Jeff Taylor Interview: Good Info

Great interview.

JT's injury was one of the most heartbreaking things as a fan of this team. I think he would flourish with extended minutes and i think would make Gerald a bench guy if at 100% health.

If anyone saw his dominance in the Summer league in 2013 you saw how much talent he does have. He showed near elite defensive ability, explosive drives and probably the most consistent outside shot on the team. He also did it in the flow of the game.

To dominate most every possesion of a Summer league game is hard to do before anyone snickers at that accomplishment. Your playing with different lineups and have guys jacking up shots to make rosters so the offense is usually really inconsistent. He made Summer league watchable which deserves its own award.

I really wish we did draft another guy outside of MKG only bc we were able to get Taylor in the second. I just fear we will lose Taylor as a free agent to a top team like San Antonio or OKC and we watch him flourish, while we wait on MKG to have develop and have confidence in his offensive game.

He is a guy that deserves good health and i hope it is in Charlotte for most his career.

    • I do think the rating is fair given how this unit hasn’t proven it with production. I understand you have to rank off production, not potential. However, our unit is also in a position to make this rating look foolish a year from now. We have 4 guys in the WR/TE room who all could legitimately take the next step this year, and catapult our rank. A guy under a lot of people’s radar after we took Tet, Jalen Coker. Mark my words, he will become the star of this room, and be the heir to Thielen.
    • Exactly. You’d think 2-7 wins a year (in a 17 game season no less) since 2017 is going to keep us bottom tier. Every year we say the same poo like we haven’t been a bad team the past 7 years. Until we prove we aren’t a bottom dweller, that’s where we’ll stay ranked. God forbid we have OL injuries like 2016.
    • What I love and hate about this team is it’s more filled with potential breakout players than ever before. JT, XL, Coker, Smith-Wade, Ikem, Trevin… and even Bryce are all guys I could legitimately see taking the next step. But the problem with having so many of those guys is that team success somewhat relies on them taking that step, and some are bound not to. That being said, I’m cautiously optimistic given our softer schedule, the way the offense clicked late last year, and the direction we finally have at GM, coach, and QB. Could see us as a sneaky playoff team.
